The Finding of Jesus

When Jesus was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem according to the custom of the feast. (Luke 2:42)

And when they were returning, the boy Jesus remained in Jerusalem, and His parents did not know it. (Luke 2:43)

They returned to Jerusalem in search of Him. And after three days, they found Him in the temple. (Luke 2:45-46)

He was sitting in the midst of the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions. (Luke 2:46)

And all who were listening to Him were amazed at His understanding and His answers. (Luke 2:47)

"How is it that you sought Me?  Did you not know that I must be about My Father’s business?"  (Luke 2:49)

And they did not understand the word that He spoke to them. (Luke 2:51)

And He went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was subject to them. (Luke 2:51)

And Jesus advanced in wisdom and age and grace before God and man. (Luke 2:52)
